A few years ago no one thought they had a chance against Borden County when they met in Strawn. Borden was in the middle of a winning streak and found out that they were not in shape and had a hard time with Calvert's speed. Calvert beat them at the end. Calvert has always been one of those...

Calvert is well coached and will make a game of it. RS hasn't really been test much, playing mostly weak teams.

Well said.

UIL needs to clean up RS recruiting, it teaches kids that it is ok to cheat , if it means winning. RS is damaging HS sports, student athletes, and UIL should be ashamed when they look the other way. What is Burkhart worth, nothing when it comes to teaching life lessons about honour, and honesty...

I was at the game and BC had superior team in almost every area, but they were in poor condition for the long haul. You could see them slowing down as the game progressed. I doubt that they have a XC program or this wouldn’t of happened. If they had run three miles before practice once a week...

This year there will be over 2000 teaching positions that wont be filled in Texas. The numbers for the next several years show the shortage getting much worst. Esp in math, science and tech. Schools may have to treat teachers better and open their check books to get and keep teachers.

Anyone care to speculate how many schools will go six man over the next couple realignments as it appears that the west Texas oil boom is in full retreat. If the sanctions on Iran are lifted, some in the know say we could see oil in the 30s a barrel range. When the oil field workers exit, the...

Wasn't Coolidge the school that was on that goofy year round school year or am I thinking of somewhere else?
